Camber arms?

Anyone know if there are any after market camber arms out that will fit the FR-S? My right rear camber arm is bent after hitting a curb pretty bad. =\

Well this blows. Found out that it's not called a camber arm it's called a toe control arm or a toe control link. And the bad news is that the OEM ones are on back order and no one has any out, so my car could be unusable for some time =\

Skoodge did you see if you could find a Subaru dealership that could help you out in finding the part? Might be a stupid suggestion if the same back-order status applies to it but it's worth a shot, I'd hate to see an 86 owner not be able to drive their car.
